Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay is at it again. This time, he’s telling the masses that a monster trade is in the works.

Irsay said the announcement was “coming soon” a little under an hour ago.

These tweets have caused a lot of speculation about what player the Colts could acquire, but most seem to believe it will be an offensive player. That makes a lot of sense because the Colts recently lost two major offensive contributors.

Last week, the Colts lost running back Vick Ballard for the season to a knee injury and hinted that they could trade for a back to replace him. On Wednesday, the Colts placed tight end Dwayne Allen on injured reserve because he needs season-ending hip surgery.
